Analisis Perilaku Pemilih di Kecamatan Pakkat pada Pilkada Kabupaten Humbang Hasundutan Tahun 2020

Abstract

Since autonomous regions established the election of the head of the district is no longer theauthority of the Council of Regional People's Representatives district/city for Regent andprovincial Council of Regional People's Representatives for election of Governor, but directlyelected by the people in the form of election of heads of district (election).. So eachautonomous region will give rise to political actors who will lead the region. They willcompete to empathize with the people in order to elect and consolidate their choices to thecandidates who feel to be the head of the district. But when there's only one candidate, peoplewill surely experience confusion in determining their choices. It will be very interesting forfurther analysis because this phenomenon is the first to occur in the district of HumbangHasundutan. In analyzing the behavior of the voter the author uses three approaches, namelysociological, psychological and rational approaches. The research was conducted in Pakkatdistrict, Humbang Hasundutan district in 2023. The method used in this research is aqualitative research method with a descriptive type. The primary data obtained from thisstudy is the result of the process of interviews with a number of communities scattered inthree villages in Pakkat district. The three villages are the villages of Sipagabu, PakkatHauagong and Tukka Dolok. To strengthen primary data the author uses secondary dataobtained from various sources of literature, articles, and documents relevant to this research.The results of this study showed that the community in the district of Pakkat wasdisappointed with the petitioner Dosmar Banjarnahor who did not pay any attention to thecommunity and also opened all means so that his political opponents, who are the sons of thedaughters of Humbang Hasundutan district who wanted to serve, were not given any accessto pass the verification of files in order to be a candidate couple. The failure of one of thedistrict's sons of Pakkat's district, Harry Marbun, caused the community in Pakkat to chooseto win an empty box in the hope that Dosmar Banjarnahor would no longer lead HumbangHasundutan district as head of district. But in the end Dosmar Banjarnahor and OloanPaniaran Nababan were re-elected as Regent and Vice Regent Humbang Hasundutan districtfor the period 2020-2024 despite the fact that the Empty Box Package won the election anddefeated the votes of the Regent candidate couple and Vice Regent Dosmar BanjarNahor-Oloan Paniaran Nababan.
